Kilmore Quay Charter

Can you fellas point me in the right direction - predominantly being a shore angler I want to do a bit of boat fishing this year, mainly lures on a spinning rod set up for cod, wrasse, pollock etc.

When does kilmore Quay start to heat up for this kind of fishing, and what lures are the best for this method?

If our organising a trip and need people to fill spaces count me in please

Hey Alby,

The pollock can be on most of the reefs nearly all year round. For the best of the action, especially if you want to see some Wrasse you would be looking at May / June till October / November for the best of this style of fishing.

Eamonn Hayes....great man to get on the fish.....never stops trying...thoroughly recommended

Alby,
You have the timing for Kilmore....grand!

After that it is less about the lure and more about being set up right, if you know what I mean.

Are you up for the show in Swords?

Jim

Sorry Jim, I should have mentioned that .... Alby, nab a few minutes with Jim at the show and he'll make sure you are set up right.... I find the charters don't normally cater for this style of fishing, but you should be able to do in at Kilmore anyway... Might be better if you can get 4 - 6 like minded guys, split the charter and go all out on te soft plastics. You would see better results and with a few lads at it, you would get a better idea of what works best.

Any one know how Kilmore is fishing thinking of heading down next week with a few lads

I was just down on wensday 8 of us on a charter and it's still a bit early we only got one cod and a few small Pollock the best time is June on but book early. Giling is great sport give it a go

Jim / Eddie

That's the groundbaiting bit sorted then - ah no worries, don't overdo it the night before on the old gargle and and have a light brekkie before you go out (poached eggs on toast etc) and you should be ok. You'll grow your sealegs after a few trips anyway - keep it up and tight lines!

I'd say skipper will be cranky if you stake the boat!

A packet of ginger nut biscuits and a flat cola will sort the tummy no end......enjoy your trip guys,
